Day 95

Day ninety-five

February 5, 2013: Everybody in this town already has a JCPenny credit card. Recently they have been really pushing the credit apps. All day I've been asking people if they want to apply for one, and the few who didn't already have one only ever use cash.

February 4, 2013: I've restarted this entry five times already. I give up. You know, I really ought to stop using boring short entries. At this rate I'm going to run out of clever ways of saying I don't have anything to write before I've gone through a thousand days.

Day 93

Day ninety-three

February 3, 2013: The ironic thing is that now that I'm in the south, where sports or supposedly such a huge thing, I've hardly even heard a peep about the super bowl. In the past it's been super bowl, super bowl, super bowl, super bowl, super bowl, super bowl, for almost a month. My family never really got into it, but those around us always did. Here, I didn't even realize it was super bowl Sunday until today.

Day 92

Day ninety-two

February 2, 2013: SNOW! Finally. Yesterday and today there was finally snow. Snow that actually stuck to the ground and stayed. Sure, it melted by the time it hit mid-afternoon but the ground was white. There are two things that I miss more than any other about Oregon. Snow, and the lack of sales tax. Other than that everything is completely replaceable. Friends? I can get new ones. All the local theaters? Nashville is super close and whereas that won't be as cheap as the local theaters it is even better than Portland was for special trips to the "big city" close by. Restaurants? Mum cooks better food anyway.  Today we had a snow ball fight and Colleen even made an eight inch snowman.  

Day 91

Day ninety-one

February 1, 2013: The Libby went ballistic at work today. It was working great until suddenly, 3 'o clock hit, and it started acting weird. It didn't freeze exactly, but it wouldn't leave the current page, and then the back part started beeping randomly. The Libby had been working so well for me the past several times I had used it. And I use it, a lot. I get one every single time I work. No exceptions, ever. As we get more and more though that isn't such an odd thing.
